I fell in love with Virgins, Saints & Angels jewelry collection during an event I attended for their special collaboration with ABC’s Once Upon a Time series. While the special edition pieces were more ornate crowns, combs and jewels, in the corner of my eye I spotted their St. Christopher Locket and I knew it had to be mine!

Virgin Saints Angels St. Christopher

It’s a 2 disc pendent, one with St. Christopher and the other has inscribed, “Wherever fortune guides my steps, however long the way, may the Patron Saint of travelers watch over me each day“.

Probably one of my favorite things about Eucerin (besides their great value and price) is that most of their body products are fragrance free and their packaging includes a 5 levels scale that ranges from Lightweight to Rich so you can see where the pendulum falls in thickness or heaviness before you purchase. As we head into spring, we’re giving away 4 of our favorites for the season — most of which include and SPF since while you should be wearing one year round, that especially holds true come spring and summer.
